Publisher's Description

In presenting the last half of the Psalter, George A. F. Knight discusses the meaning of the Psalms in the Old Testament, their application in the New Testament, and their challenge for today's readers. Psalms 73 to 150 belong to the later period of Israel's experience of God's steadfast love, recalling the story of how ordinary, sinful people responded in both faith and denial to God's actions. Now, reflecting on the Psalms with the help of this exciting commentary, the reader can glimpse the total pattern of God's redemptive plan as it unfolded and as it has continued throughout history.

Carrying forward brilliantly the pattern established by Barclay's New Testament series, the Daily Study Bible has been extended to cover the entire Old Testament as well. Invaluable for individual devotional study, for group discussion, and for classroom use, the Daily Study Bible provides a useful, reliable, and eminently readable way to discover what the Scriptures were saying then and what God is saying today.
